Examples of Great Ads


Target & Refresh Ads

Facebook Ads work differently than AdWords.

At highest level, they require:- sensitive demographic targeting- great attention to visuals- greater refresh rates- and flighting numerous campaigns to optimize creative + copy + targeting + cost

… And it’s getting more expensive by the day. So test & optimize now.

Drive Likes, then Conversions

Many brands try to convert Facebook ads to off-Facebook transactions. It’s tough.

- Try driving Likes and converting fans to traffic & transactions.

- Might find better success and get fans / relationships / virality atop that.

-

More likely to “like” and build relationship than transact click and transact in-line.

Drive Likes, then Conversions

Applicable off-Facebook as well.Use your web product to drive brand fans. Try building more topical hubs as fan pages too. Content more topical = engagement is higher.
